  • @oldwindsorblues
    @oldwindsorblues Před 5 lety +39

    My favourite blues song of all time! Written by Stax legend Booker T. Jones and blues singer William Bell, "Born Under a Bad Sign" has been made famous by Albert King and in time recorded by Cream, Paul Butterfield, Robben Ford, Jimi Hendrix, Stevie Ray Vaughan, Kenny Wayne Shepherd, Buddy Guy & Koko Taylor, Etta James among many, many others. Here it is... Joe's version playing "Lucy", Albert's guitar that is a "legend" in its own right, possibly one of the most famous guitars on this planet. By the way, "Lucy" it is not a Gibson as you may think but a 1972 "Dan Erlewine custom flying V". Pump up the volume as much as you can and enjoy!

    One of the many great things about Joe and his band is they understand tempo and pocket. They don't rush things, and they stay solidly in the pocket. They do it almost better than anybody. Makes for terrific punchy live performances.

    On the drums is Anton Fig, who for many years held down the drum chair on The David Letterman Show. And on keyboards is Reese Wynans... he was in a little band you might remember... Stevie Ray Vaughn and Double Trouble.
    Joe has some great licks but not the sharp attack that was unique to Albert King's playing. Still Joee he loves and keeps the blues alive!

    Born under a bad sign
    Been down since I begin to crawl

    You know I wouldn't have no luck at all
    Hard luck and trouble been my only friend
    I been on my own ever since I was ten
    Born under a bad sign
    Been down since I begin to crawl
    If it wasn't for bad luck
    You know I wouldn't have no luck at all

    My whole life has been one big fight
    Born under a bad sign
    I been down since I begin to crawl
    If it wasn't for bad luck
    I said, I wouldn't have no luck at all
    That ain't no lie
    You if it wasn't for bad luck
    I wouldn't have no kind-a luck
    If it wasn't for real bad luck
    I wouldn't have no luck at all
    You know wine and women is all I crave
    A big legged woman is gonna carry me to my grave
    Born under a bad sign
    I been down since I begin to crawl
    If it wasn't for bad luck
    I tell ya I wouldn't have no luck at all
    Yeah, my bad luck boy

    May 20th, 2017 at 8PM. Munich Olympiahalle...last show of the European tour and my first time seeing him live. Surprise for my wife and heaven comes to earth for me...;-) I first heard Joe in Afghanistan...on my Ipod...downloaded it while I was on a short break back in Germany in 2008...Slow Gin. I have been hooked ever since! Can't wait...:-D
